The issue BOAC is that not all airport personnel are as educated as yourself.
Pressure will be applied by those in positions of authority (IE the ones holding the purse strings) to accomodate the B737NG philosophy on all aircraft types, irrespective of safety procedures. It happens now even with a simple 'no ice on upper surface rule'. Station managers and the like insist that they know better. I have witnessed an uninformed station manager tell a captain that his aircraft didn't need de-icing when clearly it did (that one got an MOR).
Keep it simple.
